Rosa and the Tea rose garden

 I have always loved Roses, especially tea roses. The smell of them are just so lovely. I once lived next door to an older lady who grew them all over her garden and occasionally she would trim the beautiful blooms and give me a large bouquet of them. They always smelled nice! The roses she grew were in a creamy tan color with a slight pink inside. They were not the brightest blooms she had but they were the sweetest smelling ones and I adored them. 
    When I moved away that was one of the things I missed most was Vernices's tea roses. The other thing I missed was my darling girl next door. Now my tea rose Vernice has surely passed away and so this little girl is in honor of her and her sweet giving heart.  Please meet Rosa Vernice.
